Valentine Yumminess

Are these not the cutest little boxes? Totally not my own personal idea. I got the idea from this blog. Awesome tutorial here by Teresa. Go there if you want to learn how to make them. Really easy to follow tutorial posted there. I have Hershey's kisses in mine. Each box holds 4 kisses. The ones above are made with Cosmo Cricket paper that I got from the wonderful Beverly.

I stamped them up with a PTI love stamp (From Mixed Messages) and a little bird from Hero Arts. The ribbon is from Michaels...bought so long ago! Probably not there now.

This set was made with last year's Valentine papers by Pebbles Inc. Its tied up with some American Crafts ribbon (that I bought a LONG time ago). The stamps are Hero Arts and PTI.

Finally we have some Raspberry Fizz goodness. The paper is all by PTI. Ribbon from Mikes. Stamps from PTI. A little random bling and some magenta stickles. Lots of fun making these. Not sure what I am going to do with them. Maybe give them out to the teachers at school if I end up making enough.

Looking for a Charity? Consider Donors Choose.

Donor's Choose is a charity that helps teachers fund projects for their classrooms. I am a elementary school science teacher and have used Donor's Choose to fund projects I can't get the school to pay for and don't have the money to pay for myself. The link goes to my personal page and links up any current projects I am trying to fund. Once there you can also see the projects of many other teachers.

About Me

Just another mom of two, thirty (uh now forty- yikes) something year old whose life has all the excitement of a snail. Quite a long time ago I started this blog to comment on the blogs of others- but along the way I fell in love with papercrafts and now this blog is my showcase. Occasionally you will still read some of my rants, you might see some pictures of my kiddos, and sometimes you might catch my exercise woes. If you would like to use a picture or idea, please ask- I am almost always happy to share. You can contact me at derbylea at sbcglobal dot net.
